VERY IMPORTANT DECISION.
The Driven Wells Patent Declared
Invalid.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 14.-Thousauds of
farmers throughout the country will bless
the justices OF the supreme court when
they learn that the so called "Iowa driven
well cases" have been decided against the
alleged owners of the patent. In his opin-
ion reversing the previous decision of the
court, Justice Blatchford says that it ap-
pears In the record OF the present case for
the first time that the driven we'll was used
in Courtland, N. Y, before the patent TO
Green was applied for This invalidates
the patent and will prevent the further
collection of royalties. The agents of the
successors Of the original owners of the
patent have been very active during tie
past few months in collecting royalties
alleged to be due in spite of the fact that
the life Of the patent had expired. 1t
was said Dv some of the attorneys repres
enting the men who have been resisting the
patent owners that within the past six
months thousands of farmers in Iowa, In
diana, Michigan, New York and other
states have been forced TO pay royalties to
avoid summons to appear before the
United States courts, many miles away
from their homes and that as recently as
two weeks ago notices were served upon
owners of driven wells that they must pay
the amounts demanded If they would
avoid a suit OF infringement. This threat
has generally been sufficient to force the
farmers TO pay, although few have re-
sisted. 1t is said that the owners of the
patent were afraid that the Iowa cases
would be decided against them. This &C.
counts for their haste to collect all they
eonld' Those who have paid will be likely
10 lose the amounts extoried from them,
as it would be too expensive TO try to Sc.
cure refund in each instance.

On Monday night, Nov. IA, the stores of
N. Bacon & Son. general merchants. and
John M. Shaft of this place were entered
by burglars by prying open the front doors
of each store. The safe Of N. Bacon d.
Sons was blown open and the cash was all
taken. The notes were all found and the
books were safe. They also took fur caps,
silk handkerchiefs. lace, kid gloves, rubber
boots, and some small articles. John
Shafts store was then entered. They took
cash, notes and mortgages of him. John
Shafts loss was about $4,000 in all and
Bacon's loss about $4O0 Undoubtedly
the scamps were professionals as they first
went to VIM McCulloch's blacksmith shop

The question as to the immediate or
remote pFobabilityo Of war, at any given
time, is a matter Of futile speculation,
as our history aptiy proves. During
the last hundred years we have been at
war six times, counting the French
hostilities of lT9S--an average of one
war TO every IS or IL years. The causes
that brought about the old wars are no
longer operative; French spoliations
have ceased, the Tripolitan and Alger-
inc pirates have been swept from the
seas; England no longer asserts a right
of impressment; there Is no territorial
controversy with Mexico. But other
causes that may operate with equal
force in the future are not far TO seek.
We have come TO the verge OF war
twice since the Rebellion---in 1865 and
In 1s73---and both times Unexpectedly.
In the first case a rupture was only
averted by our own excellent state Of
preparation. In case Of a general Eu-
ropean war, which is always impend-
pending, unarmed neutrals would suf-
Ter. as they did in 1905; and even with
out such a war there is danger at all
times of an invasion OF rights, or a
collision of interests, which no COM
promise could adjust, and before which
the friendly demonstrations of the CEN
tennial period would disappear like the
smoke OF the saluting guns that accom-
panied them. ~ Prof. J. X. Solely, U. ).
